LAUNCH X-431 IMMO ELITE User Manual
This function enables you to erase the codes from the vehicle after reading the
retrieved codes from the vehicle and certain repairs have been carried out.
Before performing this function, make sure the vehicle’s ignition key is in the ON
position with the engine off.
Clearing DTCs does not fix the problem(s) that caused the code(s) to be set. If
proper repairs to correct the problem that caused the code(s) to be set are not
made, the code(s) will appear again and the check engine light will illuminate as
soon as the problem that cause the DTC to set manifests itself.
On the diagnostic function selection screen, tap Clear Fault Code, the following
screen will appear.
Tap YES, the system will automatically delete the currently existing trouble
code.
Note: After clearing, you should retrieve trouble codes once more or turn ignition
on and retrieve codes again. If there are still some trouble codes in the system, please
troubleshoot the code using a factory diagnosis guide, then clear the code and recheck.
D. Read Data Stream
This option lets you view and capture (record) real-time Live Data. This data
including current operating status for parameters and/or sensor information can
provide insight on overall vehicle performance. It can also be used to guide
vehicle repair.
Caution: If you must drive the vehicle in order to perform a troubleshooting
procedure, ALWAYS have a second person help you. Trying to drive and operate the
diagnostic tool at the same time is dangerous, and could cause a serious traffic accident.
